This colorful and reassuring picture book follows Babysaurus on an adventure as he enlists his prehistoric friends to seek his Mamasaurus. Is his Mamasaurus the fastest in the jungle? No. Is she the loudest? No. Is she the best flyer? No! Of course, Mamasaurus has been right there all along. And when Babysaurus needs a little help, she is ready with a big hug and a sweet, leafy snack. For Babysaurus, his Mamasaurus is the best mamasaurus in the world! Stephan Lomp has illustrated several books in his native Germany, and in this debut as both author and artist, he has created a fresh twist on a perennial theme that will win the hearts of little ones and their mamas as they snuggle up to read a new favorite.

Mamasaurus glanced back at her precious Babysaurus, a little dino who was perched on her back chomp, chomp, chomping leaves from a tree. Mmmmm, veggies were so good! All was well until he slid and slipped right off the edge of her long, curly tail and into a pile of leaves. “Wheeeeeee!” Plop. It was so dark that he “could not see his Mamasaurus anywhere.” Waaaaaah! Just what could the little Babysaurus do without his mama? He could ask if anyone had seen her, that’s what. A little pink and orange birdie, Ornito approached him.“Hey, wait!” he asked, “Have you seen my mama?” No, if she didn’t “run faster than the wind” like Ornito’s mama, he hadn’t seen him. Waaaaah! Just what was the little Babysaurus going to do without his mama? He could ask someone else if they had seen her, that’s what. Little purple Tritopta was chomping on some leaves and Babysaurus asked if he’d seen his mama. “Does she have a long horn like my mama? Tritopta asked. No, but she did have a “wonderful long neck.” No, Tritopta hadn’t seen Babysaurus’s mama either.On and on Babysaurus went, asking everyone he met if he’s seen his mama. Waaaaah! Blue Ptero hadn’t seen his mama, nor had turquoise Hespero. “Have you seen my mama?” he continued to ask. All of a sudden there was a BIG, loud noise. “ZZZZZ!” Surely that must be his mama, but nooooo, that was Rexy. “Does she have,” Rexy asked, “sharp teeth like my mama?” There were so many creatures in that deep, dark jungle, but had anyone seen his mama? Waaaah!This is an adorable tale of Babysaurus, a little lost dino, that preschool children will love. Of course the fun, cute factor in this dino book is an off-the-wall one. Stephan Lomp’s artwork is eye-popping and lots of fun.
